Why It Matters

• Board and governance: The board slate was confirmed for the coming year, which impacts company oversight and strategy execution. Detailed vote totals show varying levels of shareholder support for individual directors.
• Auditor continuity: Ratification of Grant Thornton provides clarity on who will audit the company’s 2026 financials.
• Executive pay: The advisory say-on-pay proposal was approved, meaning shareholders supported the company’s disclosed 2025 executive compensation; as an advisory vote it is non-binding but informative for future governance.
• Voting context: The filing discloses significant broker non-votes on director and say-on-pay items (2,405,025), which represent shares that brokers did not vote on discretionary matters and thus did not affect the vote totals for those proposals.
